Kumbanad is a town located in the Koipuram Town Panchayath Along with Pullad Thiruvalla Taluk of Pathanamthitta district in the State of Kerala.

Economy[edit]

Remittance from NRIs is the primary source of income. The large number of ATMs and high density of banks are also attributed to large bank deposits. As of 2009, the bank deposits for the Kumbanad-Thiruvalla belt are estimated to be Indian Rupee symbol.svg 5,400 Crore.[1]

There are other small business and services that depend on the foreign remittance. Since most of the emigrants are young and middle aged, most of the settled population is old-aged. There are services and health care units that cater to their needs.[2][3]
